[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] include/hw: field 'offset' in struct Property should be ptrdiff_t as int causes overflow

[Ildar Isaev]

'offset' field in struct Property is calculated as a diff between two pointers 
(hw/core/qdev-properties.c:802)

arrayprop->prop.offset = eltptr - (void *)dev;

If offset is declared as int, this subtraction can cause type overflow
thus leading to the fall of the subsequent assert 
(hw/core/qdev-properties.c:803)

assert(qdev_get_prop_ptr(dev, &arrayprop->prop) == eltptr);

So ptrdiff_t should be used instead
